• Summary

  This publication explores the relationship between the landscape and the body through an instructional manual that demonstrates how to produce the sound of the sea using two hands and a carpet. The Kayfa ta series, a publishing initiative that uses the popular form of how-to manuals (how=kayfa, to=ta) to respond to some of today’s perceived needs; be they the development of skills, tools, thoughts, or sensibilities. These books situate themselves in the space between the technical and the reflective, the everyday and the speculative, the instructional and the intuitive, the factual and the fictional. (Kayfa ta).
